About this video
Shawna and I recorded this video because comments on the last HLC exposé showed something heartbreaking:
Even ex-Jehovah’s Witnesses — people who left 10, 15, even 20 years ago — are still being pressured in hospitals by elders, HLC members, and JW doctors.
Many have never been taught the actual scriptures on blood.
Many still fear that taking lifesaving treatment is a sin.
And far too many people have no idea what to do when the HLC walks into their hospital room.
In this video we cover:
1️⃣ The real history of the JW blood doctrine
— It didn’t come from God.
— It didn’t come from scripture.
— It came from Fred Franz and the Watchtower leadership in 1945.
2️⃣ What the Bible actually teaches about blood
Using the New World Translation — so JWs can’t dismiss it:
• Leviticus 18:5 — “Live by means of them.”
• Matthew 12 — Mercy over ritual.
• 1 Corinthians 10:25 — Paul permitted blood-filled meat.
• Deuteronomy 30:19 — “Choose life.”
• And Jesus’ condemnation of Pharisees who demand burdens that harm people.
3️⃣ The truth about the HLC structure
— How they track patients
— Pressure doctors
— Interfere with care
— And isolate people from family
4️⃣ What YOU can do if this happens to you
A step-by-step plan to protect your medical autonomy,
remove elders or HLC from your hospital room,
and ensure you receive lifesaving treatment.
You deserve life.
You deserve freedom.
You deserve the truth — not coercion.
If this helped you, please share this video.
It could save someone’s life.
